THE SHRINKING STEEL INDUSTRY Few industries have been harder hit by rising imports – and have made greater demands at the political level – than the steel industry. Its persistence apparently paid off when, in March 2002, George W. Bush agreed to impose a tariff of up to 30% on steel imports.

It also requested, but did not receive, money from the government to pay the retirement and healthcare benefits for those pensioners who had received generous benefits when the industry was profitable. Without jettisoning this cost, the industry claimed, it could not consolidate and hence become competitive against worldwide competition. The positive impacts of such a move to employers and shareholders of the steel industry are obvious. But what about the negative impacts?…
